In Healthcare

In the healthcare sector, chlorine dioxide disinfection is one of the primary measures for contamination control and the sterilization of medical equipment, rooms, tools, and surfaces.

Indoor Bio-aerosol Control

Chlorine dioxide molecules are small, and therefore, can more thoroughly disinfect large patient areas and access building cavities that may be overlooked during the disinfection process.

Sterilization of medical equipment, rooms, tools, medical laundry, and surfaces

The sterilization function of chlorine dioxide plays a particularly crucial role in reducing the possibility that viruses and bacteria in the air worsen the conditions of ill patients in hospital environments.

Contamination Control

Ideal for killing Legionella pneumonia, which is transmitted through the inhalation of liquid droplets in the air and becomes deadlier in a hospital setting, chlorine dioxide is an efficient treatment for destroying the harmful pathogens in hospital water distribution systems and preventing their spread.

Since chlorine dioxide is a more effective oxidant than chlorine, it can be used in smaller quantities than hypochlorite products.

Outlined by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, chlorine dioxide is used in several on-site disinfection protocols, such as indoor air disinfection, floor & wall disinfection, and the disinfection of public surfaces, to ensure safety in homes, isolation wards, medical institutions, transfer vehicles, and/or any other potentially disease-contaminated areas. Chlorine dioxide in an aqueous solution is a disinfecting agent designated for disinfection use at any time, meaning it is safe to spray in ventilated spaces in the presence of others and will not cause harm to human health.
